What Can You Expect When Getting a Yoga Massage


Getting a massage is always a welcome experience, especially in a place like Singapore where everything seems fast-paced. All you need to do is lie or sit down while a masseuse does their work. Unlike yoga, you won't have to be 'active' throughout your session.

So, how does a yoga massage work if, separately, these two practices seem opposite of each other?

A yoga massage offers the same benefits that you can gain from getting a massage and doing yoga. However, since it can be considered a mixture of the practices, you can't expect to be passive throughout your session.

You will have to do various poses with the guidance of your instructor. The poses range in difficulty level. And like a massage, you can target different body areas. Here are more of the benefits of getting a yoga massage in Singapore.

        Relieve stress. A Singapore yoga massage therapy can help you reduce your anxiety. Practicing yoga helps you heighten self-awareness so you can be in the present. You can clear up your head and forget about things that may be bothering you. You’ll end the session feeling much more relaxed and rejuvenated.

        Boost energy. When muscles get too tight, flow of energy is also affected. This can result in stiffness, discomfort, and pain. Your posture or immune system may go weaker and contribute to aging. With yoga massage, you can relax your muscles with the help of stretching exercises. You can release toxins in your body and relax your muscles further.

        Reduce pain and discomfort. With the help of a yoga massage therapy, you can manage chronic pain better. While there is no guarantee that performing this massage can cure health conditions, it can help people deal with the symptoms. Muscle and joint pain, for instance, are usually associated with pain. Being consistent on massage sessions can improve your threshold for pain and help release muscle tension. All of which without the need for medications.

        Ease headache. If you're experiencing tension headache, doing yoga massage may help ease the pain. By putting pressure on specific body parts, blood circulation improves and the nervous system relaxes. If you are allergic or hesitant of taking medications for your headache, you may want to try this bodywork as an alternative treatment.

        Strengthen joints. Massage sessions are tailored according to the needs of the client. Certain parts of the body can be targeted. If you are experiencing pain in your joints or muscles, whether as a result of an active or sedentary lifestyle, a yoga massage therapy in Singapore can help make you feel better. After your sessions, you'll feel lighter. Your overall mobility will improve as well.

Yoga massage uses a holistic approach, focusing on the flow of energy within the body. A session can last up to two hours, depending on the needs of the client. Techniques used also vary. If there is one thing to look forward to, that is an improved sense of wellbeing after every appointment.

Just be sure to advise your instructor of any health condition you may have. This way, they can also see whether getting a yoga therapy, while you’re in Singapore, is right for you.

Why I Decided to Take Outdoor Yoga Classes

In Singapore, everything seems to be on fast track. Whether it be in school, at work, and sometimes, even at home. Like most people, I didn't even know I'm already fatigued from working too much until my body gave up into a fever. My doctor said that I'm spending way too much on my working desk that it took a toll on my body. After resting for 3 days, which I thought then was such a waste of time off work, my best friend invited me to attend a yoga class with her at Pasir Ris Town Park. She said it will be a great start of a healthy-conscious living. Well, I wasn't so convinced back then, but because the park was just around the corner of our place, I decided to get some trial classes.

9 Flowers You Need to Keep Off Your Congratulatory Bouquets

When it comes to gifting congratulatory blooms to your loved ones, friends, colleagues, consider what flowers to send or include in your bouquet or stand. Flowers, after all, have meanings.
